AB Graphic picks Nilpeter for Middle East sales

In a move to expand its activities in the region, AB Graphic International has named Nilpeter ME as its distributor for the Middle East. The company will handle sales and technical support for the Vectra range of turret rewinders and the Omega and Flytec slitter inspection systems from AB Graphic International and will also have license to sell the Omega Digicon converting line in tandem with its Casalon ink jet, label printer.

"Our new partner in the Middle East will provide ongoing technical support for our new and existing customers throughout the Middle East," says Matthew Burton of AB Graphic International. "These will include UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Lebannon, Jordan and Oman. We are extremely pleased to have made this strategic appointment that will give us a strong platform from which to further penetrate this market."

Nilpeter ME will operate from its new facility in Dubai and has a substantial sales and technical support team in place to support its range of label printing presses. "Since its inception, we have been a committed supplier in offering top class, narrow web machines in the Middle East," adds Shyam Babu, managing director. "We have had an overwhelming response from customers in the region and were being asked to provide additional solutions such as finishing and more. AB Graphic International is a market leader in fully modular converting and rewinding equipment and also manufactures machines for specialised applications including RFID insertion, laser die cutting, booklet labels and 100% camera inspection. We are happy to join hands with them in offering another top class product range in the Middle East."
